Mainly because you all suck recently, everybody seems to be in bed by about midnight. Rubbish.
Weekendness done much interesting or something sideways with the aceness for the win.

I went to the comedy store in London last night; that was good fun; then spent today stripping wallpaper which wasn't so much fun.
Then watched the Simpsons movie on DVD tonight which was good again.

Trying to educate your kids is a waste of time...just leave them to get on with a life of substance abuse. Regular posting on here should tell you that. |

I went there with school when I was about 8/9, I had a £1 to spend in the shop and all I could afford to get was a pencil... I wasn't happy. :x Don't really remember much else, apart from a huge whale. I planted some carrot seeds this afternoon. Well, it was more like chucking a few in a pot with some compost rather than planting, so I doubt if anything will come of them. Still, it made me feel a bit like Tom from The Good Life. |

I dunno Reg, I remember going to the Exploratory in Brizzle or maybe it was the Science Museum. Fuck it, I like going places I could press buttons which would do stuff anyway. Oh and train journeys are ace when you're a kid.

I watched Full Metal Jacket and laughed quite a lot.
Also watched 3:10 to Yuma and thought it was quality. "Best Western since Unforgiven" - rubbish, it was about a thousand times better than that. Best Western since Outlaw Josey Wales.

I don't think I've ever watched a Western all the way through. Never been something which has interested me. Is it worth starting or is peoples love of the genre just nostalgia for a time when films were less interesting?

I would arriba, I loved it. Proper brutal 'wild west' feel to it.
FB - 3:10 to Yuma does quite a good job of retaining interest without losing much of the atmosphere that Spaghetti Westerns had. It's pretty much a 60's style Western for a modern audience.

I didn't even realise that people bothered with modern Westerns? Is it a few modernish one or two things and the way of I think about it of nobody really making them for 30 years+ pretty accurate? I'm not sure I've managed to completely miss a modern genre of films and don't really remember much being described as Westerns over the last 10 or so years.

If you haven't ever got into a Western, then I wouldn't bother, unless you've only tried watching John Wayne guff. These days the Spaghetti Western is quite an acquired taste, not a lot happens for long periods and scenes drag on for ages, when they wouldn't these days. |
